Conformal blocks are fundamental objects in the conformal
bootstrap program of 2D conformal field theory and are closely
related to four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory.
In this talk, I will demonstrate a probabilistic construction of
a...
It may seem quite obvious that graphs carry a lot of geometric
structure. Don't we learn in algorithm classes how to solve
all-pairs-shortest-paths, minimum spanning trees etc.?
However, in this talk, I will try to impress on you the idea
that...
Sixth and higher moments of L-functions are important and
challenging problems in analytic number theory. In this talk, I
will discuss my recent joint works with Xiannan Li, Kaisa
Matom\"aki and Maksym Radziw\il\l on an asymptotic formula of
the...
In 2018 Keating, Rodgers, Roditty-Gershon and Rudnick
established relationships of the mean-square of sums of the divisor
function $d_k(f)$ over short intervals and over arithmetic
progressions for the function field $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ to
certain...
I will explain how to construct the Ruelle invariant of a
symplectic cocycle over an arbitrary measure preserving flow. I
will provide examples and computations in the case of Hamiltonian
flows and Reeb flows (in particular, for toric domains). As...
I will give an introduction to Gaussian multiplicative chaos and
some of its applications, e.g. in Liouville theory. Connections to
random matrix theory and number theory will also be briefly
discussed.
